| − | The full title of this book is ''[[Just the Ticket! My 50 Years in South African Show Business]]'' and it a valuable reminiscence about theatre in South Africa in the second half of the twentieth century. Offering a first-hand view of Tucker's[[]] journey from these modest beginnings to becoming the trusted advisor and confidant to theatrical managements, the guide and comforter of visiting international stars and something of an unofficial impresario himself and is told with humour, humility, nostalgia and a sense of history. To be star struck for a lifetime and to succeed in turning this passion into a rewarding career is the stuff of which dreams are made. For Percy Tucker, the dream became a reality.
